Miscellany: Dancemasters
Dancemasters
Seven hundred limber-limbed men and women walked past a box in the rococo ballroom of Manhattan's Hotel Commodore last fortnight and put into it small bits of paper. When all had filed by the box was removed, opened and the bits of paper sorted. Presently Thomas M. Sheehy of Chicago rose and in a hushed silence read a list of names and a list of dances. Thus were announced four dances and one novelty (from a field of 60) which the Dancing Masters of America have officially elected to sponsor and will endeavor to popularize throughout the land.
